About this property

Sandy Cheeks & Barefeet, Gorgeous interior Gulf beach Place, pool, on beach side

  • ST Lic CND5101424 City licVRC23-000018 Gulf views from several rooms and lanai! Quick access (only 1 small house between you and sun & sand). 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath, Sleeps 4, Pool, Gulf Views, Steps to the Beach! No Pets Fabulous Location on the island & beach! 60 steps to sand!! No roads to cross!!! Beachy themed, spacious, & Gulf ocean water views are ways to describe this 1395 sq. ft. 2 bed, 2 bath condo on beautiful Anna Maria Island at Holmes Beach 1/2 way down the Gulf Beach coastline. No high rises, only old Florida charm at its best!! Less than a minute walk out to the ocean waves & white sand, convenient quick walk to groceries & pharmacy, bike/ golf cart rental, & the popular Cheesecake Cutie breakfast/lunch cafe. No need for a car as AMI offers a free trolley, Monkey Buss, or rent a bike for a ride in either direction will take you to famous Bridge Street for fun, tiki bars, & waterfront restaurants, or head to the Anna Maria Island City Pier for fishing! There is live music at several venues most nights around the island. Seasonal local beach markets, farmer’s markets, and local theatre can be enjoyed. The bright and cheery master bedroom has a king bed, a TV, direct access to the Lanai, Gulf views, & its own private bathroom. The second bedroom has a full bed, twin bed, tv and front Lanai for beautiful sunrises! Second bathroom is nearby. Large bedrooms, spacious kitchen and living room!

The condo is newly renovated with lively bright colours giving off a beach island vibe, fully stocked kitchen and bathrooms, beach towels, driftwood flooring, two lanais, one with views of the turquoise blue sea & white sand, and a beach closet containing toys, chairs, wagon, and umbrella. That is what you will find if you stay at Gulf Beach Place, unit 3, (it truly feels like a home). An 8 unit complex (split into 2 buildings) with heated pool in between, bbq grill area, on a quiet, less travelled part of Gulf Drive! Two Car parking in tandum in carport area under the building. This condo lends itself to quick access to the Gulf of Mexico’s ocean waters shimmering as the sky paints one of its gorgeous sunsets from its own rooftop deck only 12 steps above or stroll down to the soft sandy beach with seashell bucket in hand. Watch dolphins swim by during your morning coffee on the back Lanai or flow through a yoga routine at sunrise on the rooftop as the island awakes. Touring the island on bikes is a fun way to enjoy an afternoon. Have a larger group? Rent a separate unit for your extended group! A vacation to remember awaits you!

Wonderful condo on the beach! Even though the vacant lot in front of this VRBO is now being built, there are still beach views and is only a few quick steps to the beautiful beach. We loved it and look forward to returning.

Hidden Treasure

I had a great stay (again!) in AMI. Sandy Cheeks is such a nice treasure of a place to stay in. You can't beat the location - steps away from the beach and a nice quiet neighborhood. Very convenient to shops and Publix. Cooper and Heather did a wonderful job decorating and making a comfy beach house for their guests.

Great location! Place was spotless!

This condo was the perfect size for our family of four (2 adults, 2 teens). The place has a great beach vibe with lots of colorful ocean decor. The beds were comfortable and the master shower is huge. The washer and dryer were pristine and the kitchen has every amenity needed. The beach is a 1 minute walk from the unit and pharmacies, dining, grocery stores and souvenir shops are just a 5 minute drive away.

We absolutely loved the location of this condo. It's a short walk from a fairly quiet beach, and a 5 minute walk to Walgreens, restaurants and a trolley stop. There are dressers, closets and hooks for a comfortable stay, and entertainment including streaming services, playing cards and books. The condo is well stocked with kitchen items, spices, towels and beach supplies. Several of the beach chairs were broken, but we found enough to make it work. The listing could use updating regarding the view. There is no longer a small house between the condo and beach. It has been torn down and a very large home is being built in its place. There is still a small view of the beach, but it's mostly a view of the back of another home. I would still choose this condo for location and comfort, but would have appreciated an update about the construction to avoid disappointment.

Roofing going on at our stay

We absolutely love this location, we have stayed 2 other yrs.That being said,the roof was being replaced it was loud at 615 am every morning, dirty, no parking under unit and finding many nails in the pool, for days,after...we hosted our parents, from NY and was embarrassed that they had to stay at a construction site...we have many pics for you.We believe we should get a refund for the first weeks rental, because of the mess, noise and inconvenience, please respond to get to a solution. Thank you

Excellent accommodations!

This property was perfect for our vacation. We shared the property with some good friends, and we all had fun exploring the Island. There were excellent dining and shopping options, and of course we enjoyed the beach. This property was clean, accommodating, updated and a stones throw from the beach. We highly recommend this property to anyone thinking of vacationing on Anna Maria Island.

Wonderful stay!

Beautiful unit! Clean, close to the beach, well-appointed. Couldn’t ask for more! Our dealings with the owners were great. They refunded our money for our spring visit that was cancelled due to the pandemic. We rebooked for the fall, and we were so happy we did. We’ll be back!

Best Location in Holmes Beach

Beautiful, clean unit in the best area of Holmes Beach. Close to the beach and the shopping center and grocery. Unit is perfect for families and even had a high chair to use. Nice dining table that seats six and plenty of seating to watch movies in the evening. Would return without hesitation. Decorated with great artwork from local artists.
